Abstract: An occupant restraint system includes an airbag and an inflator. A gas supply pipe extending from the inflator is inserted into the interior of the  airbag and immovably fixed in a manner in which the gas supply pipe is clamped from above and below by a pipe support formed in the airbag from a part of stitching defining a plurality of cells. The gas supply pipe can thus be fixed without employing any special fixing member, thereby reliably preventing blockage of the gas nozzle that would cause interference with smooth issuing of the gas and preventing damage to a base fabric of the airbag by the heat and pressure of the gas.

IPC: B07B1/46
Filed: 2000-02-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a rotationally symmetrical sieve for fibre suspensions. The inventive sieve comprises a series of straight profile rods (12) which extend in the direction of the sieve axis and form slit-shaped sieve openings (56) in-between themselves. Said sieve also comprises several ring-shaped profile rod carriers (10) that are situated in planes which extend vertically in relation to the sieve axis (14). Each carrier is provided with a series of cut-outs (34) in the edge region thereof which is adjacent to the sieve inlet side, whereby said cut-outs have an open edge towards the sieve inlet side and serve for inserting the profile rods (12). The shape of said cut-outs matches the shape of the cross-sectional areas of the profile rods, whereby said areas are held in a positive fit in the cut-outs. The aim of the invention is to insert the profile rods into the cut-outs of the profile rod carriers in a more simple manner. Each profile rod (12) has a recess (50) for each profile rod carrier (10). Said recess reduces the width of the cross-sectional area pertaining to the profile rod. The recesses are located outside the profile rod carriers when the sieve is completed.

Title: Graft ligament anchor and method for attaching a graft ligament to a bone
Inventor: SKLAR JOSEPH H
IPC: A61B17/56
Filed: 2002-09-26
Abstract: A graft ligament anchor comprises a graft ligament engagement member disposed in an opening in a bone, the graft ligament engagement member being arranged to receive a graft ligament alongside the engagement member, and a locking member for disposition in the opening, and at least in part engageable with the graft ligament engagement member. Movement of the locking member in the opening causes the locking member to urge the engagement member, and the graft ligament therewith, toward a wall of the opening, to secure the graft ligament to the wall of the opening. A method for attaching a graft ligament to a bone comprises providing an opening in the bone, inserting the graft ligament and a graft ligament engagement member in the opening, with the graft ligament disposed alongside a first portion of the engagement member, and inserting a locking member in the bone alongside a second portion of the engagement member, the locking member being separated from the graft ligament by the graft ligament engagement member. The method further comprises moving the locking member to cause the locking member to engage the graft ligament engagement member to urge the graft ligament engagement member, and the graft ligament therewith, toward a wall of the opening to secure the graft ligament to the wall of the opening.
Patent CA-2408558-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PETERSSON STIG ANDERS
IPC: H01Q15/14
Filed: 2001-05-07
Abstract: When manufacturing waveguides, for example densely located waveguide channels, for electromagnetic waves such as microwaves, the channels are produced from rod-shaped bodies (1) of a material permeable to the waves and non significantly attenuating the waves. The bodies (1) can for example project from a base plate (3) and their side surfaces are coated with electrically conducting material but not their free end surfaces (5). The interior of the bodies form the waveguiding channels, which have their walls formed from the layer of electrically conducting material. By giving the rod-shaped bodies suitable shapes for example an antenna side or half of a waveguide antenna can be manufactured. The rod-shaped bodies can before applying the electrically conducting material be coated with one or several layers of non-attenuating and non-conducting lacquer filling pores and smoothing the surface of the bodies. Thereby, the layer of electrically conducting material obtains a smooth transition surface to the material of the bodies giving the channels good waveguiding characteristics. If the material used in the bodies has a strong surface porosity, the channels formed from the rod-shaped bodies become strongly attenuating to the electromagnetic waves. A set of such bodies located at the sides of each other and having suitable dimensions of the bodies gives an element working strongly attenuating to the electromagnetic waves.
